<h4>Chapter 747: 747. Husband Wants to Take a Concubine_1</h4>


    Adam Jones waspletely unable to remain calm at this point. From the moment he received the news, his entire brain seemed to have been shattered, leaving him utterly incapable of thinking straight.


    All that filled his mind was the image of his wife being harmed by a brute, and the thought of her being in any danger had his entire heart trembling.


    The more sullen and terrifying Adam’s expression became, the more the joy in Daisy Thompson’s eyes threatened to spill over.


    But everyone’s attention was focused on the adulterous couple in the room; no one noticed the expression on her face at the moment.


    Apparently worried that Adam might try to smooth things over and protect Elly Campbell’s reputation, Daisy naturally refused to let that happen.


    "What a joke," she thought. "After all the effort and humiliation I’ve endured to bring Elly to this point, how could I easily let that little bitch off the hook."


    Thinking this, she quickly took the lead, saying,


    "Adam, no matter what, the person inside is your wife. You should calm down. Let’s talk this over nicely, don’t ruin the love between you and your spouse."


    At first listen, the words seemed to be speaking on behalf of Elly, but upon closer examination, every sentence was a trap for Elly.


    The phrase "the one inside is your wife" directly exposed the rtionship between Adam and Elly.


    Adam was only left to deal with Elly. If he could swallow his pride tonight, his reputation as a cuckold would be out there, and soon, the whole world would know Adam Jones as the man who was low enough to be cuckolded by his wife and yet swallow his pride.


    So, even if Adam still had feelings for Elly, with so many people watching and knowing the woman inside was his wife, he had no choice but to take action, irrespective of his feelings.


    Listening to the continuous, raspy cries from inside, which rose wave after wave, was sheer enjoyment for the listeners.


    Many people evenughed out loud without any respect, looking at Adam with a bit of sympathy.


    Daisy had nned well, even figuring out how she would deal with Elly after she was kicked out of the Jones family.


    But at that moment, the door of the room across suddenly opened, and any hint of triumph that had been hiding on Daisy’s facepletely froze upon seeing the person who came out of the room.


    Right after, herplexion turned deathly pale as she incredulously listened to the clear moans stilling to her ears. It seemed she had realized something, and her face grew paler and paler.


    "Elly Campbell, how can you be here?!"


    Daisy eximed in shock, and the heatedmotion inside the room instantly ceased, followed by the sound of hurried footsteps.


    Adam’s previously frantic gaze was reced by an inconspicuous joy upon seeing Elly Campbell standing unharmed before him.


    He strode to Elly’s side, protectively cing her behind him with a clear protective gesture.


    Elly saw the somewhat pale face of Adam and imperceptibly frowned, but she had to deal with the current situation before addressing anything else.


    If some people don’t want to live well, then they might as well die.


    Her gaze swept over the crowd of onlookers, finally settling on Daisy Thompson’s incredulous and terror-filled face, and the corners of her lips curled.


    "Mrs. Thompson’s question is odd. Where do you think I should be?"


    With that question from Elly, Daisy’s already pallid face lost all color.


    "I just heard Mrs. Green talking to my husband about ’after all, she is his wife.’ Since when did my husband take a concubine?"
